Beyond-Compare Brussels Sprouts Recipe

  • Carlini Cooking Spray
  • 8 1/2 ounces Jiffy Corn Muffin Mix
  • 1 cup Season's Choice Super Sweet Corn, thawed
  • 8 slices Appleton Farms Premium Sliced Bacon
  • 3 pounds Brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
  • Stonemill Essentials Iodized Salt, to taste
  • Stonemill Essentials Ground Black Pepper, to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup Chef's Cupboard Chicken Culinary Stock (optional)
  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Coat a square baking dish with cooking spray. Prepare corn muffin batter according to package instructions. Stir thawed corn into batter. Bake for 15 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool.
  2. Cook bacon until crisp. Reserve the bacon drippings. Crumble bacon once cool.
  3. Place Brussels sprouts on a baking sheet and toss with bacon drippings, salt, pepper and nutmeg. Roast for 15-20 minutes.
  4. Break corn muffins into bite-sized pieces and place on a baking sheet. Bake for 12-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Meanwhile, add onion to pan and cook over medium-high heat until caramelized.
  6. Just before serving, toss Brussels sprouts with 3/4 of the crumbled bacon, caramelized onions and corn muffin crumbs. If desired, use chicken stock to moisten mixture. Pour into a serving bowl and garnish with remaining crumbled bacon.
